Come back warm weather please, sick of being so cold
I’ll happily trade you
-Signed a Canadian.EDIT: Just looked at some local temps… Isn’t it like 15C in most places there? The lowest I see is ~9C. I understand Australia is a large place, but I don’t see many cold temps. Sorry if I sound rude, I don’t mean to, just curious.
EDIT EDIT: How hot does it usually get there?
its all relative.
i’ve spent time in colder climates but you don’t notice it as much because the houses are designed for the colder weather. the houses in australia typically are not designed for colder weather since it doesn’t get awfully cold for much of the year… so when it’s cold, you definitely notice it here.
for example I am sitting in my house with thick socks, track pants, shirt and hoodie on. the house is closed up, but as per my other comment I have no proper shielding from the elements. and its 21°C so its not even deemed as cold but in the shade where my home office is, its doesn’t warm up.
when I was in the UK, I would walk around the house in just boxers during the dead of winter when it was minus degrees outside.
edit: here’s some brisbane weather stats for you to mull over:
its all relative.
That’s fair. 21C is ideal temp for me, although I prefer colder for mostly the reasons some people mentioned below. You can dress up for winter… harder to strip down for the heat. There’s only so much that can come off before the police are called and you’re arrested :P
And I didn’t realize that the houses aren’t really made for the cold temps. Makes sense when you mention it though. Thanks for the answer, and sorry again if I came off as rude!
100% with you, prefer the cooler months for sure! the only downside is it makes it difficult to enjoy our beautiful beaches :) and you can only get arrested if they can catch you… haha
and definitely didn’t come off as rude! always happy to share details about how beautiful city that is Brisbane :)

beautiful city that is Brisbane
I have a cousin down that way, I might see if I can visit him one day and experience it.
I would say come visit the beautiful city of Winnipeg,… but 1: It’s not beautiful, and 2: no one wants to be in Winnipeg, not even Winnipeggers.

I must prefer Winter to Summer. In Winter you can always pile more clothes on, so you can totally keep yourself warm in Winter for free. In Summer, once you take layers of clothes off there’s nothing else you can do. You are required to keep a fan or air con on at tall times, which costs money I do not have.
Therefore, Winter > Summer.
